trezor or case have other attack vectors

Oh, what are their weaknesses? I was not aware that a trezor had any ?

I believe people were able to extract private keys by measuring electric noise or something, that's being created by the processor while processing the keys. It really is quite a remarkable method, I don't know how easy it is to apply it, though!
Yeah I found the thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1022815.0

Seems like it has been fixed by satoshilabs but the fact that it was possible means that there may be other vulnerabilities.

I guess over time hardware wallet companies will improve.
